Liddell V Ortiz 3? Not any more

Quote:
As MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) reported earlier today, the UFC announced the pay-per-view show is headlined by a light-heavyweight bout between "The Ultimate Fighter 11" coach Chuck Liddell and "TUF 11" replacement coach Rich Franklin.

Additional main-card fights include Patrick Barry vs. Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic, Martin Kampmann vs. Paulo Thiago, Carlos Condit vs. Rory MacDonald, and Evan Dunham vs. Tyson Griffin.

UFC 115 takes place at GM Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

UFC 115 initially was slated to feature a headliner between Liddell and fellow "TUF 11" coach Tito Ortiz. However, Franklin replaces Ortiz at some point on the reality show, which airs its third episode on Wednesday.

With a solid and deep lineup, more than a few main-card regulars were forced to UFC 112's un-aired preliminary card. However, those bouts – specifically, Mac Danzig vs. Matt Wiman and Ben Rothwell vs. Gilbert Yvel – could be shown during a Spike TV "UFC Prelims" broadcast if the cable station taps UFC 115 as one of its 10 specials this year. (MMAjunkie.com reported earlier today that UFC 113 won't have a "UFC Prelims" one-hour special but that UFC 114 will.)

UFC 115 marks the UFC's debut in Vancouver and just the fourth Canadian show in UFC history. Montreal's Bell Centre hosted UFC 83 in 2008 and UFC 97 in 2009, and it'll also host UFC 113 next month on May 8.

Regulatory issues nearly kept UFC 115 from happening in Vancouver, and Cincinnati was on standby as a potential replacement site. However, two weeks ago, a three-hour emergency meeting of the Vancouver City Council, which included UFC officials, satisfied the city's concerns over legal liability and insurance costs.

The full UFC 115 card includes:

MAIN CARD

* Chuck Liddell vs. Rich Franklin
* Patrick Barry vs. Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic
* Martin Kampmann vs. Paulo Thiago
* Carlos Condit vs. Rory MacDonald
* Evan Dunham vs. Tyson Griffin

PRELIMINARY CARD

* Mac Danzig vs. Matt Wiman
* Ben Rothwell vs. Gilbert Yvel
* Peter Sobotta vs. James Wilks
* Ricardo Funch vs. Claude Patrick
* Jesse Lennox vs. Mike Pyle
Probably will include Fitch V Alves as well, so I'd assume Dunham V Griffin will drop to prelims.

Henderson: I have more dimensions as an mma fighter
Franklin: How many more dimensions did he say? Was it like 3 more dimensions? Cause thats ALOT of dimensions

When I see my opponent, I begin shaking uncontrollably, and once he hits me, I think to myself, You just hit Wanderlei Silva, how dare you hit Wanderlei Silva, and then I try to kill him. Wanderlei

Because he is Tito Ortiz? The guy was middle of the road at best in his heyday and then left because his pornstar girlfriend thought he should be making more money and now the sport's passed him by and he can't hang in the title picture anymore. Besides, this isn't a rubber match. Liddell KO'd him twice.

Tito didn't start dating Jenna Jameson until after he had already returned to the UFC, unless you're talking about the second time he left the UFC but that certainly wasn't Ortiz' "heyday" anymore.

As for him leaving in the middle of the show I think that is just conjecture on MMAJunkie's part as Dana White has been steadfast on not revealing what happened during the show.

Coienciding with when the show was being filmed Jenna Jameson has a potentially life threatening situation with her uterus which caused her to have to miscarry her and Tito's unborn child. Many speculate this is the reason for Tito's departure from The Ultimate Fighter Season 11. If that is the case than I don't blame Tito at all for leaving the show.

Was really looking forward to Ortiz and Liddell, but Rich Franklin gives Liddell a strong chance of performing a fight without getting KO'd early. Ortiz probably would've lost. Can't wait to see Franklin/Liddell.

What a tragedy. Btw I'm talking about Jenna Jameson's looks. She used to look so amazing.

Yeah.

When I just have enough of his antics and behaviour, I watch him coach and respect the guy.

All jokes aside, I hope Jenna is OK and all that jazz
